+10:30 Welcome/Introductions
+---------------------------
+
+Carl: Been working on cairo since the beginning, (6 years ago). Much
+of that work was funded by Red Hat, but recently changed jobs to work
+for Intel. Hoping to talk about things today, but get some real work
+done Wednesday and Thursday
+
+Vlad: Firefox 3 is using cairo and an update was offered (yesterday!)
+to Firefox 2 users to upgrade to Firefox 3. This should put cairo out
+onto 150+ million machines.
+
+Joe: Working for Mozilla from Toronto office. Really want to
+hardware-accelerate cairo. Will probably write an OpenGL backend for
+cairo.
+
+Jeff Muizelaar: Joined Mozilla in July. Worked on cairo in the past
+due to work with poppler. Interested in cairo performance.
+
+Fred Plourde: Freelance consultant---been working with
+Mozilla. Interested in improving upscaling/downscaling quality and
+performance.
+
+Søren Sandmann: Work for Red Hat, on the X team. Maintaining pixman
+library, (not full time). Want to hear ideas about pixman
+improvements, and talk about damage tracking.
+
+Chris Wilson: Generally working on fixing cairo.
+
+Adrian Johnson: Mostly working on printing side of things, (PDF and
+PostScript). Want to talk about what needs to be done there.
+
+Antoine Azar: Background in 3D graphics. Very interested in OpenGL
+backend.
+
+Travis Griggs: Got into cairo through work with touchscreen interfaces
+for food-processing equipment, (smalltalk-based). More recent work
+continues to use cairo from smalltalk. Lots of Mac OS X and Windows
+deployment, and would like to learn how to improve that.
